This jacket is very low quality and oddly shaped in my opinion. I wear a size medium in nearly every brand, but the medium in this jacket is enormous. I exchanged for a size small, but should have just returned it for store credit. It seems like there is a full two size difference between the small and medium.

If you have an athletic build, with a smaller waist, and broad chest/shoulders, this jacket will not fit you properly. The back/shoulders area is tight, while the waist is huge.

The pockets are oddly placed, impossible to close with a gloved hand, and are not insulated enough to keep your bare hands warm.

The zipper may be my single biggest complaint. It is tiny and cheap for a large parka. For comparison, the breast pocket zipper on my Canada Goose jacket is larger than the main zipper on the North Face.

The outer layer of the jacket is very stiff, even after hours of wear. Needs to be softer to move with the body better.

Overall, this jacket missed the mark in every aspect for me. I live in Minnesota and spend a good amount of time outdoors in the frigid weather.

I bought this jacket in prep for a Montreal ski trip in February. The jacket was completely warm with just a couple layers underneath. Only complaint is it is a tad puffy, would prefer a slimmer jacket.

Really love how warm and stylish this coat is. I opted going with the males version vs the female because I loved how it has a classic bomber look to it. The only thing I wish was better was access to the pockets, not a big fan of how it buttons up and for aesthetic reasons wish they either left it as a zipper or no flap pocket at all. I went for an XS instead of a small since I have a smaller build than men and definitely shorter arms. Fits great.

The color is true (Urban Blue). Glad to see the fur can be taken off the hood. The inside face mask is a great idea and easily used. This will be my go to winter coat for many years.Wishes-A couple more inside pocketsA D-ring sewn on the chest pocket or shoulder for a carabiner.

Fantastic jacket from North Face! Extremely stylish and comfortable to wear! I take it everywhere with me and it's my favorite jacket to wear when New York winter weather decides to hit us up just cause it feels like it. Great jacket overall and highly recommended!
